Big Ten

[78alum]

Did I see this right, 8 teams in the Big Dance, 2 to the NIT and 4 out completely. Michigan, Ohio State not playing any more this spring. Wisconsin and Rutgers in the NIT.

Edit - 3 to the NIT, 3 left out, OSU, Minny, Nebraska.

Yes and unfortunately I fear another flame out for the BIG and I am usually an overly optimistic supporter of the BIG teams.
I watch a lot of college basketball (retirement is great) and I think the BIG is over rated. Hope I am proven wrong though.

Oh great…the litigious society strikes again.

What if the championship is decided on a controversial call? Another lawsuit? Smh.

Rutgers? You'd think they would just send Vinnie and Tony to the selection committee to do a little gentle "persuading"

Rutgers in the NIT might be interesting. They are pissed they didn't get in the tourney, and are playing better the last few games. They might win it.

Crazy what the Mag injury did to them. Before his injury, they were looking at a 4/5 seed perhaps.

yes, I missed that, I actually saw a news report from the NCAA website that listed Michigan State (which I knew was wrong)

Or.... If a team is scheduled to play against them.... the other team better dress in Hockey Goalie gear to play the game.... it will be rough. haha

Thought Dakich had a great analysis here. Will be very interesting to see how Woody does in year 3 without Archie's superstar.

And road teams have better than 50% chance to win.
